Evert Tourney Star Searching

October 9, 1993|CHARLES BRICKER

A new WTA rule limiting tour players from appearing in more than one event a year is putting a crimp into the annual Chris Evert Pro-Celebrity tournament Oct. 30-31. A spokeswoman at Evert's Boca Raton office said she has been unable to get Martina Navratilova, Tracy Austin or Pam Shriver to make an appearance because all three have made an appearance for 1993. Evert said she has talked to Monica Seles about participating, but "there are no promises."It's not known if Seles, recovering from a stabbing attack, is able to practice.
